CSD Film “Meant to Be”

When parents give birth to a deaf baby, Alba, they seek advice from a doctor. The doctor states that the best way for Alba to be as “normal” as possible is to give her cochlear implants and not use sign language. Throughout her childhood, Alba is constantly bullied by her peers. No matter how hard she tries to blend in, it’s never enough. She encounters setback after setback until a chance meeting in the library sets her on a new path. This leads Alba to make new choices that allow her to embrace the woman she was meant to be.
